WARNING Before playing this game, read the Xbox One™ system, and accessory
manuals for important safety and health information. www.xbox.com/support.
Important Health Warning: Photosensitive Seizures
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain
visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even
people with no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that
can cause “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games. Symptoms
can include light-headedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking
of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, momentary loss of awareness, and loss of
consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby
objects. Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of
these symptoms. Parents, watch for or ask children about these symptoms—children and
teenagers are more likely to experience these seizures. The risk may be reduced by being
farther from the screen; using a smaller screen; playing in a well-lit room, and not playing
when drowsy or fatigued. If you or any relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy,
consult a doctor before playing.
Please note that NBA 2K15 online features are scheduled to be available until
November 2015, though we reserve the right to modify or discontinue online features
on 30-days’ notice. Visit www.2ksports.com/serverstatus for more information.

VIRTUAL CURRENCY & VIRTUAL GOODS: The Software may enable users to (i) use fictional virtual currency as a medium of exchange exclusively within
the Software (“Virtual Currency” or “VC”) and (ii) gain access to (and certain limited rights to use) virtual goods within the Software (“Virtual Goods” or “VG”).
Regardless of the terminology used, VC and VG represent a limited license right governed by this Agreement. Subject to the terms of and compliance with this
Agreement, Licensor hereby grants you the nonexclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, limited right and license to use VC and VG obtained by you for
your personal non-commercial gameplay exclusively within the Software. Except as otherwise prohibited by applicable law, VC and VG obtained by you are
licensed to you, and you hereby acknowledge that no title or ownership in or to VC and VG is being transferred or assigned hereunder. This Agreement should
not be construed as a sale of any rights in VC and VG.
VC and VG do not have an equivalent value in real currency and do not act as a substitute for real currency. You acknowledge and agree that Licensor may revise
or take action that impacts the perceived value of or purchase price for any VC and/or VG at any time except as prohibited by applicable law. VC and VG do not
incur fees for non-use; provided, however, that the license granted hereunder to VC and VG will terminate in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and the Software documentation, when Licensor ceases providing the Software, or this Agreement is otherwise terminated. Licensor, in its sole
discretion, reserves the right to charge fees for the right to access or use VC or VG and/or may distribute VC or VG with or without charge.
EARNING& PURCHASING virtual currency and virtual goods: You may have the ability to purchase VC or to earn VC from Licensor for the completion of certain
activities or accomplishments in the Software. For example, Licensor may provide VC or VG upon the completion of an in-game activity, such as attaining a new
level, completing a task, or creating user con tent. Once obtained, VC and/or VG will be credit ed to your User Acco unt. You may purchase VC and VG only within the
Sof tw are, or t hrough a p lat form, p art icipa ting thi rd-p art y onlin e store , appli cati on stor e, or oth er sto re auth orize d by Lice nsor (al l refer red to h erein as “ Sof twar e
Store”). Purchase and use of in-game items or currency through a Software Store are subject to the Software Store’s governing documents, including but not
limited to, the Terms of Service and User Agreement. This online service has been sublicensed to you by the Software Store.GF Licensor may offer discounts
or promotions on the purchase of VC, and such discounts and promotions may be modified or discontinued by Licensor at any time without notice to you. Upon
completing an authorized purchase of VC from an Application Store, the amount of purchased VC will be credited to your User Account. The Licensor shall
establish a maximum amount you may spend to purchase VC per transaction and/or per day, which may var y depending on the associated Software. Licensor, in
its sole discretion, may impose additional limits on the amount of VC you may purchase or use, how you may use VC, and the maximum balance of VC that may be
credited to your User Account. You are solely responsible for all VC purchases made through your User Account regardless of whether or not authorized by you.
BALANCE CALCULATION: You can access and view your available VC and VG in your User Account when logged into your User Account. Licensor reserves the
rig ht, in it s sole d iscre tion , to make al l calcu lati ons reg ardin g the avai lable V C and VG in y our Use r Accou nt. Li censo r fur ther re ser ves the r ight, i n its so le disc reti on,
to determine the amount of and manner in which VC is credited and debited from your User Account in connec tion with your purchase of VG or for other purposes.
While Licensor strives to make all such calculations on a consistent and reasonable basis, you hereby acknowledge and agree that Licensor’s determination of
the available VC and VG in your User Account is final, unless you can provide documentation to Licensor that such calculation was or is intentionally incorrect.
USING VIRTUAL CURRENCY AND VIRTUAL GOODS: All purchased in-game Virtual Currency and/or Virtual Goods may be consumed or lost by players in the
course of gameplay according to the game’s rules applicable to currency and goods, which may vary depending on the associated Software. VC and VG may only
be used within the Software, and Licensor, in its sole discretion, may limit use of VC and/or VG to a single game. The authorized uses and purposes of VC and VG
may change at any time. Your available VC and/or VG as shown in your User Account will be reduced each time you use VC and/or VG within the Software. The use
of any VC and/or VG constitutes a demand against and withdrawal from your available VC and/or VG in your User Account. You must have sufficient available VC
and/or VG in y our User A ccount in order to c omplete a tr ansac tion within t he Sof tware. VC and/or VG in your User A ccoun t may be red uced wi thout n otice upon the
occ urren ce of ce rtai n event s relat ed to you r use of th e Softwa re: For ex ample, y ou may los e VC or VG up on the lo ss of a gam e or the death of your c harac ter. You a re
responsible for all uses of VC and/or VG made through your User Account, regardless of whether or not authorized by you. You must notif y Licensor immediately
upon discovering the unauthorized use of any VC and/or VG made through your User Account by submitting a support request
NON-REDEEMABLE: VC and VG may only be redeemed for in-game goods and services. You may not sell, lease, license, or rent VC or VG, convert them into
convertible VC. VC and VG may only be redeemed for in-game goods or services and are not redeemable for any sum of money or monetary value or other goods
fro m Licen sor or an y other p erson o r entit y at any t ime, exc ept as ex press ly provi ded her ein or oth erwise re quire d by appli cable l aw. VC and V G have no c ash valu e,
and neither Licensor nor any other person or entity has any obligation to exchange your VC or VG for anything of value, including, but not limited to, real currency.
NO REFUND: All purchases of VC and VG are final and under no circumstances will such purchases be refundable, transferable, or exchangeable. Except as
prohibited by applicable law, Licensor has the absolute right to manage, regulate, control, modify, suspend, and/or eliminate such VC and/or VG as it sees fit in
its sole discretion, and Licensor shall have no liability to you or anyone else for the exercise of such rights.
NO TR ANSFERS: Any transferring, trading, selling, or exchanging of any VC or VG to anyone, other than in game play using the Software as expressly authorized
by Li censo r (“Una uthor ized Trans acti ons”), in cludin g, but no t limit ed to, am ong oth er user s of the S oft ware, i s not san ctio ned by Li censo r and is st rict ly forbi dden.
Licensor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate, suspend, or modify your User Account and your VC and VG and terminate this Agreement if you
engage in, assist in, or request any Unauthorized Transactions. All users who participate in such activities do so at their own risk and hereby agree to indemnify
and hold harmless Licensor, its partners, licensors, affiliates, contractors, officers, directors, employees, and agents from all damages, losses and expenses
arising directly or indirectly from such actions. You acknowledge that Licensor may request that the applicable Application Store stop, suspend, terminate,
discontinue, or reverse any Unauthorized Transaction, regardless of when such Unauthorized Transaction occurred (or has yet to occur) when it suspects or has
evidence of fraud, violations of this Agreement, violations of any applicable law or regulation, or any intentional act designed to interfere or that otherwise has
the effect of or may have the effec t of inter vening in any way with the operation of the Sof tware. If we believe or have any reason to suspect that you have engaged
in an Unauthorized Transaction, you further agree that Licensor may, in its sole discretion, restrict your access to your available VC and VG in your User Account
or terminate or suspend your User Account and your rights to any VC, VG, and other items associated with your User Account.
LOCATION: VC is only available to customers in certain locations. You may not purchase or use VC if you are not in an approved location.
